The ForgottenAphemia is an industrial/electronic, progressive rock band, combining influences such as Nine Inch Nails, Celldweller, Disturbed and Muse all wrapped up in a sonic-assault production style akin to Devin Townsend at his finest.Based in Derby UK, Aphemia has built a strong reputation for delivering powerful live performances. Heavy guitar grooves and synth leads punch their way through the soundstage created by dark ethereal pads and rhythmic patterns that infuse with pounding drum beats to relentlessly drive the music forwards. Aggressive, rhythmic vocal lines punctuate the verses and morph effortlessly into memorably melodic choruses that stay long in the mind.‘Aphemia’ is a disorder (also known as ‘aphasia’) where people suffer an impairment in language ability, often as the result of some kind of trauma. The affliction makes it difficult for individuals to communicate clearly in spoken form, but they will often find it easier to sing rather than speak. Thus, the meaning of the band name, Aphemia, translates into the meaning behind much of the band’s music. Lyrically, the songs are about vocalising the difficulties and hypocrisies of life; sentiments that will reach out to anyone who listens. Conveying both anger and sometimes acceptance, there's a point to each song that transcends trends, fad-politics or short-sighted views.Soundscape Magazine - BritRockArmy 'The Uprising' CD review "As soon as the introduction for Save Me by Aphemia kicked in, I instantaneously knew that this one was going to be my favourite track of the [compliation] album. Sometimes when you hear the first few notes of a song, you just get a feeling you’re going to love it and this was definitely the case with this one. Everything about this song is utter brilliance – the instrumentation is a perfect mix of electronic and rock, and the vocals fit the band incredibly well. I cannot sing the praises of this band enough and I will surely be checking them out over the next few days – something I recommend everyone reading this review to do!Sandman Magazine - Gig review - Junktion 7 - Nottingham“Certain bands you just know are going to be good before they even sing a note or play a chord and the last band of the night Aphemia certainly delivered. They were professional, passionate and most of all determined, they played with a hunger that none of the other bands displayed.”Saggy Pants - Gig review"Aphemia mix huge catchy metal riffs with an industrial edge and are a band full of power. Tonight their set starts with an awesome burst of power and the drummer goes nuts as the huge, epic keyboards come in and the beefy and catchy guitar riffs and vocal patterns break through. The drummer and bassist are really tight and provide the backbone to the band and with the keyboard adding a mass of depth and atmosphere they really build a sound scape of noise. The guitar riffs are very catchy and have almost a nu-metal feel with Papa Roach mixed in with a heavier industrial (Pitchshifter?) edge. The vocals patterns are catchy and interesting and each song has a powerful and diverse edge. The music does the talking and this band are tight and powerful with catchy and dynamic songs and a beef and kick that ends the evening on a high.Saggy-Pants.com - Safety In Number promo CD review“A musical display of excellence”“With interesting melodies and vocal patterns as well as a mix of influence there is no doubt Aphemia are original and different. They are also energetic and atmospheric… I would recommend you check them out for yourself”
